I made a cake from scratch and then polked holes in the cake so the hot icing would drip down into the still hot from the oven cake. I then topped it with some tart cherries I mixed with sugar and cornstarch. It was absolutely awesome served warm.

DELICIOUS! My nephew helped me put it together...before I could get to him, he had boiled the living daylights out of it. It was practically fudge when we took it off the stove. I added a bit of milk and restirred...perfect!

I made this for my chocolate cupcakes. I found it too sweet & brown sugary for my taste. Also, sets and gets a little harder than I would like. I also made the Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting, and we absolutely loved that! If I make this chocolate icing again, I will reduce the brown sugar by about 1/3 to 1/2.

I added chocolate chips to give it a more chocolatey flavor. Delicious!

Very good. Tastes great and is easy to make. Beware, it does cool very quickly so this isn't good for cookies of cupcakes, but rather it is perfect for something quick to ice, like cake.

Great icing! Quick to make up. Tastes wonderful on a simple white/yellow cake. Make sure to spread quickly, though. Once it starts to set, it hardens rapidly.

I covered some brownies with this chocolate icing. Quick and easy; very sugary and sweet. The kids loved it. Next time I will add some chocolate morsels - it lack chocolate flavor. In addition, if you wanted to do more than cover a batch of brownies, you will need to double the recipe.

The consistency was nice, but the taste.... All I could taste was the brown sugar. I couldn't even taste the chocolate. Even my sweet toothed children didn't like it.

I made this right before I went low carb. What a way to go out! It was really good. I added a few chocolate chips and it was creamy, yet it still set nicely.

While this tastes great - it sets way too fast! Will most likely go for another recipe next time or just buy the packaged stuff!

I added an extra Tbs of cocoa for a really fudgey taste. This worked perfectly to top a marshmallow and crushed grahm cracker mixture to make S'more Bars. It has a very nice fudge like texture.

I didn't have any problems with this icing setting too fast. I like the fact that it hardend at all. When my 2 yr old ate the the cupcakes I iced with this, she didn't make a mess. I also added more cocoa. Overall, very good.

Very easy to make. I agree with the other reviews that suggested you add more of the cocoa than what the recipe calls for. It wasn't as "chocolatey" as I thought it would be. I will make it again!

This icing is delicious. I think it tastes a lot like the icing on top of chocolate doughnuts. The only problem I have with it is that it is hard to spread, but adding extra milk helps.

tasty. sets pretty firm, very fudgy. Firm enough to crack slightly when cutting my cake. My only complaint was that it was too firm/dry to stick to the cake. I'll try more milk next time.
